conning tourists
During my first visit to Las Vegas, which was also my first vacation in 12 years, I was with my significant other who suffers from congestive heart failure with only 11% of his heart functioning. While at the MGM Grand Casino, we were approached by a woman offering free vouchers. She claimed they were running a promotion and that if we visited another one of their resorts, we would receive $100 in food vouchers, $200 in free play, and a $50 cash reimbursement for securing our spot in the offer. We ended up touring this resort, an RCI property, for three hours in 107-degree weather, which was extremely taxing for my significant other given his heart condition. When we informed them that we couldn’t afford the $32,990 timeshare they were trying to sell us, the demeanor of the person showing us around changed drastically. He became rude and pushy, despite the initial assurance that there was no obligation to buy. Eventually, we managed to leave without purchasing anything, but the entire “promotion” felt like a scam. They lied about it being the last day for “closed out deals” and became aggressive when we declined to buy. The so-called “promotional gifts” turned out to be nearly worthless, as the vouchers could only be used on a few specific machines at Casino Royale, which required hitting a jackpot to win anything. This experience was incredibly frustrating and detrimental to my significant other’s health. The company seemed more interested in conning us into a sale than in providing a genuine promotion. I strongly advise against engaging with this company, as they appear to be exploiting people to sell their properties. AI-g
